found out Friday that i will be having back surgery on the 17th....the bulge between L5-S1 has doubled in size from when i first hurt it a year ago.....they have to drill away some bone to get to it and ill be away from work for atleast 2 weeks and restricted duty for 4 to 6 months.....and i am pissed.....have a speed goat tag in an area i love to hunt that i usually only get every 3 years....if im REALLY lucky i can hunt the last week of the season but its unlikely....least i have 2 weekends of grouse hunting before surgery.....
anyways they drill the bone, move a nerve out of the way, trim off the bulge and take out some of the inside of the disk to help prevent it herniating before the hole scars over.....working on weaning myself off the pain meds im taking now so they work better for me post op without having to resort to comatose dosages.....
